Nice front seam schlueter with OD#3 chinstraps. Nice one. The liner chinstrap with steel buckle is most likely post war from my understanding.

Yeah looks like black painted steel which would make the leather chinstrap post war.  Everything else is late WWII era and in great shape!

Front seam, rough textured shell, and steel. No cracks or dings. Its a very good shell. If it isn't yours, I'd buy it!

It is a front seam helmet. Too bad, you let a good one slide at a very good price.

He wanted 80$ for shipping even though he was in the us would have been 270 in total

The shipping is odd but even so, $270 for a front seam Schlueter in that condition is a good price.

$80 for shipping is insanity!  It costs $25 maximum to ship an M1 using USPS.

Agreed, shipping is totally unreasonable but, even with that, $270 is a great price.

I had some cash so I searched on eBay and remembered this helmet so I find where I messaged him  and he still has the helmet. Just got it for 215 with shipping

So everything is good except the chin strap?

Chinstrap is good, just post war.  But the answer to your question is yes!  A solid deal too if you got the shipping down to $25.
